I once heard a couple of opera singers perform this in a New York subway station during rush hour. And the world slowed down for just a few minutes. And when they finished, the roar of applause and encores rivalled that of any opera house! To this day I still consider this song one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard.

It appears to me (expert that I am not) that their vibratos and dynamics are in perfect sync. I mean, how do people DO that??? It seems that Anna is the pacer and Elina adapts to her. Notice how Elina occasionally looks at Anna's mouth for visual cues.

They sound like two birds beautifully singing. No competition just blending for the sake of the music.

Do you not know what the the Ukrainians have been doing to East Ukraine for 8 years and how American politicians backed it with money and weapons beginning with a violent coup in Maidan? Their whole intention was to create a hostile neighbor to Russia. The people in government in this country (US) are mad sick when they can't get their hands on the wealth of a nation like Russia. You've heard they want to do a regime change in Russia, like they did in Yugoslavia, Afghanistan, Iraq, Egypt, Lybia, Syria (where they failed because of Putin!). They are ruining the United States too and it's all CIA run. 5 weeks ago they could have sat down and negotiated but they want regime change and have vowed to draw this conflict out for a very long time.

I think metal is a natural progression of classical. Just added electrical distortion. You can’t tell me that Bach’s Tocatta and Fugue isn’t metal. That’s as hard as a guy could get in early 1700’s. Same with the intro to Carmina Burana. Metal usually features instrumentalists that are always pushing the envelope of playing and skill, advancing what can be done with the instrument. Some classical composers back in the day REQUIRED the absolute best instrumentalists in order to play the music right

I just stumbled on to this piece by accident and it brought me back to a childhood memory with my mother and I. She loved her classical music which she used to play often. Such happy times back then. My dearly departed mother passed away a year and a half ago at the age of 61. She was the other half of my heart and soul and I'm so lost without her. This music has brought me to tears again. Mum and I had an extreme life and not in a good way that's why I lost my faith in religion a long time ago but if there is such a place called heaven l hope she's there dancing with the angels and listening to this beautiful piece of music. Rest in peace my beautiful mum. No words can express the love I have for you and I hope we will be together again one day.

¡BRAVA!!! Such grace, such beauty, such incredible emotion! And this brings back a wonderful memory - of when I actually heard this piece performed nearly as flawlessly several years ago, in a tiny backcountry chapel in a tiny Maine town, by a woman and her mother, who were both from that town. The woman was home for summer vacation - from her position with the New York Opera! She was an incredible soprano, and her mother was a perfectly-matched mezzo. I hadn't expected anything like this at all, but had tears streaming down my face and was totally speechless after they concluded to thunderous applause.

Elina Garanca is the best mezzo-soprano in the world for now.
